New Jersey Utilities Apply for Rate Increases
LCG, September 17, 2002--Utilities in New Jersey which have been required to keep charges to customers under rate caps, want to recover costs they have incurred in supplying power.The state's Board of Public Utilities has required audits of $1 billion in expenses at four utilities, including Conectiv, Jersey Central Power & Light, Public Service Electric and Gas, and Orange and Rockland Utilities. The audits are being conducted by Mitchell & Titus LLP, and Larkin & Associates.New Jersey's electricity market has been in a transitional mode, which is scheduled to end Aug. 1, 2003. Since retail rate caps were in effect while the utilities had to pay higher prices for gas last year, utilities were allowed to securitize unreimbursed expenses two weeks ago under a new law. In effect, bonds can be issued which will effectively speed the recovery of costs.Retail caps in the state were not simply set based on the historical rates, but were mandated to be lower. The current audits may lead to retail rates returning to their historical levels, if not going higher.
